Re: Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

Okay good news. I think I fixed a majority of the kr issues. Today I cleaned all three MAF sensors. Only one that was dirty was the third sensor found above the engine, and man was it dirty. Used compressed MAF cleaner and a q-tip and got it as clean as possible then removed and cleaned my throttle ...

Re: Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

Sorry for the second post,
But for your theory you might be onto something. At around 50mph to interstate speeds, if a use a light/constant throttle my engine will create a drone and the timing will advance for some reason to the max the gauge will read. This has gotten louder and within a larger ...

Re: Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

Hm it’s nice knowing I’m not alone with this issue. I would think that some of those 4inch exhaust systems would have similar issues but you’ve convinced me to get it fixed next week. I think one of the million exhaust shops here could put a new clamp on or weld it so I’ll let you know if that fixes ...

Re: Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

Sorry one more thing to add. I am on my second engine (turbo blew out on first engine) and It happened(s) on the stock tune with 93 octane on both engines.

Re: Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

Also reducing the global spark does not change anything nor adding more fuel to the rich/lean condition. :(

Re: Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

I have replaced the plugs with the new updated ones to .30 gap about three months ago and I have also drilled my intercooler as I have experienced the water in the intercooler bog before but this is different. I have recently found a small exhaust leak at the clamp directly after the left cat ...

Re: Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

I had been running the MPG Boost tune for my trip. I usually run the 91 octane tune and have just switched it back. Sorry for the late reply.

Weird Knock Retard on F-150 Ecoboost

Hey y'all,
I have some weird looking knock retard with my 2011 f-150 ecoboost. At WOT I get up to +12kr and at low rpm I get high negative kr when I hold a certain position on the throttle. This is my second ecoboost engine for this truck and both have had this same issue. Happens on stock as well ...
